It has been endorsed by state and local organizations such as the National Governors Association, the National Conference of State Legislators, the National Association of Counties, and the National League of Cities.

General Alexander has served his country ably and honorably for the past forty-four years.

The strong leadership that has been provided by General Alexander has benefitted not only the Ohio National Guard, it has benefitted all Ohioans and our Nation.

The positive impact he has had on the lives of Ohioans is immeasurable and his compassion for people and pride in serving in the military epitomize the true meaning of the words--Duty, Honor, Country.

I join with all Ohioans in expressing my appreciation for a job well done to Major General Richard C. Alexander.

I rise today to pay tribute to this remarkable individual and dedicated public servant.
